Research Notes

Gilly's Note:- Further reading is necessary to study the debate in respect of the two Robert Tuckers. It is unlikely that this Robert ever left England and there is no evidence that he married at all. There was another Robert Tucker b.1604 who was in Massachusetts. [The Massachusetts Robert Tucker married Elizabeth Allen].

Refer "Tucker-Darrell" by Rufus Stickney Tucker, Ph.D., Cambridge, Mass., vol. 76, p. 232,N.E.H.&G.Reg. for refutation of ancestry of JOHN TUCKER of Hingham, as set forth in "The Genealogy ofthe Tucker Family" by Ephraim Tucker (1895)

The Research Notes above says that he spent time in Gloucester. If that is true, it appears that two of his children, "Ebenser" and "Expedeanc" died in Gloucester in 1652. See https://archive.org/details/vitalrecordsofgl03glou/page/311/mode/1up

The birth records of "Expedeanc" and another child "Ephrom" is here: https://books.google.com/books?id=7j_IsT8Kxl0C&pg=PA730

All these are recorded in Gloucester, not Weymouth or Milton.

Needs work. PGM co-managed profile. The sources listed in The Great Migration Directory are listed, with link to key to titles. Do any one of the profile managers have the time to work on this? If you don't know how to decifer the key to titles, I'm available to help - just ask.

Hello Cheryl, unfortunately I do not have the time to focus in satisfactorily on this right now. I would be grateful for the improvements you might make. Tom

Thanks so much for replying Tom. I understand, we can each only do what we are able with the time we have available.
I fixed a broken link for this source: "Alice M. Siders, 3 Jul 1998 post in reply to Dr Joeseph Warren on https://www.genealogy.com/forum/surnames/topics/warren/ "

I was able to update the generic forum link to the one that is now used, but I was unable to find the post that was referenced. I don't know what's happened to the archives of what was originally the FamilyTreeMaker Forum, I'm not sure if the post is still available.
